Sir Christopher Gent yesterday hung up on 18-and-a-half years at Vodafone with an emotional farewell to the firm he took from Britain's first mobile phone company to the world's 15th largest corporation.Handing over the reins to his successor, Arun Sarin, 55-year-old Sir Christopher came close to tears. He paid an intense tribute to his long-time lieutenants, chief operating officer Julian Horn-Smith and finance head Ken Hydon."To leave my executive colleagues and the wider executive team will be for me the biggest wrench of all. I not only love the business but the people in it," he told investors at the group's annual meeting.
